Aussie Post has stopped all sea delivered mail and parcels due 2 over capacitation of prohibited mail and number of illegal parcels shipped by sea
Wonder what they could be ?
Might be an idea not 2 make any orders 4 some time

The backlog will be horrendous early next year, lol.

Makes sense though, quicker to process air freight containers, than shipping containers. That, coupled with huge staff shortages (no DC wants to work for them, go figure). They're all outta options..

They say it’s because of prohibited items but if you read between the lines it’s because an increase in sea freight and them only having 1 facility and limited staff to process the increased amount arriving boat. Most seeds come by air anyway, boat takes 4+ weeks from China and 6-12+from US or Europe

Mate, even i didn't know if it's a real ridgy didge name
Knew capacity was fair dink so stab in the dark shot at the plural turned out ok

I smell an agenda.. the real issue is rarely a transparent one.
More likely a blindside or a boiled frog.

The agenda is low staffing levels and an increase of sea freight because of covid bullshit and the reduction in international flights.
